Q: How can I purchase your realtime modsecurity rules?
To purchase a license for the Atomicorp Modsecurity Rules, just visit the Atomicorp's Gotroot Modsecurity Rules page and click the Buy Now icon, or click on this link.
Q: Do your mod_security rules work with cPanel?
Absolutely, and we support them too. They are pre-tuned, fast and full supported. No set of rules is more complete, pre-tuned, or will protect your system better and faster than ours. If you care about security and reliability, then you want to use our mod_security rules.
Q: Do the rules need to modified to work with cPanel?
Absolutely not. They work right out of the box with cpanel. You don't need to change or modify the rules at all.
Q: Will ASL-Lite work with cPanel?
Absolutely. ASL-Lite works with Cpanel and is fully supported.
Q: Will ASL work with cPanel?
We have reports from customers that it will. This is provided that cPanel does not remove or replace components that ASL uses, such as mysql and other support libraries. We have customers running cPanel and ASL, however we do not currently support cPanel with ASL (we do support ASL-Lite with cpanel).
We are working on a version of ASL for cPanel. We recommend you use ASL-Lite with CPanel, which works just fine and is fully supported.
Q: Do you support ASL-Lite with cPanel?
Yes, ASL-Lite is fully supported with cPanel.
Q: Do you support ASL with cPanel?
Not currently (We recommend you use ASL-Lite with CPanel, which works just fine and is fully supported).
This is because cPanel does not use package management, and like most Linux applications ASL does. This makes it very difficult to install third party software with cPanel. Cpanel, because it does not use package management, does not check what is installed and will overwrite important libraries and modules. This is why package management was invented, to prevent these kinds of problems, without it there is no way to detect or prevent this.
You can have a working product one second, and then it won't be working the next after a cPanel install or upgrade. cPanel also does not properly report what it has installed, so there is also no way to know what the system is missing or may already have installed. We are looking into how we could support cPanel, one simple way would be for cPanel to use package management like all Linux vendors do.
At this time, we recommend you use ASL-Lite with CPanel, which works just fine and is fully supported.
Q: Does Cpanel support the gotroot rules?
Cpanel does not officially, but we do! If you use the gotroot rules with Cpanel we fully support them.
Q: Does Cpanel support the atomicorp.com rules?
Cpanel does not officially, but we do! If you use the atomicorp.com rules with Cpanel we fully support them.
